Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Well have 7 d2d's which are a pain. Took 45 mins just to put 1100 odd in the frame (2 cols on a tue).
Delivery was ok till the skies opened and it chucked down.

Just wait until that DOM starts talking about "Banking Hours", I'll tell him to sod off!

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Easier day and finished off by telling the lino that I'm fed up being given hardly any notice when they want me to do dockett and that if they want me to work the extra then up my contracted hours.
Cue look of panic and confusion whilst I started laughing in the jokey banter way that has been directed my way so often by our fearless leaders.
Was told that the overtimes there when I want it,said noo I'd rather the stability of upped hours weekly so that when I'm on holiday I don't suffer a huge drop.
that and I'm rescinding my working time opt out tomorrow....
January...winning

Droont should sum up the day, more of the same tomorrow looking at the forecast, times like this I wish I had a few more D2D's, trying to stick 1 farmfoods leaflet through doors on its own after it gets a bit dampish is no fun.
2 hours overtime booked and another 90 minutes should cover this weeks physio costs.

Packet city here and I don't think it's going to stop anytime soon but at least it's still worth 1hr OT everyday.
